Oh yeah! I hit my goal for today! Now to par-tay tonight with a clear conscience!
Tomorrow we're headed to the gallery in Carmel. While Wino's working, I'm hitting up several yarn shops around the Carmel/Monterey area because I've become a yarn-a-holic. Then if I get back to the gallery before 5pm I'm going to buckle down and write! If I don't meet my goal tomorrow it's ok because I have Sunday to catch back up.
Have a great weekend everyone! I'll post an update either Sunday night or Monday. Until then,
Ciao!

NaNoWriMo Day 18
Word Count: 30,136 (post write-in)
While I didn't write with the "official" write-in group, I met up with a friend instead. Despite the annoying girl next to us in the library, we managed to reach our personal goals for the evening and left the library feeling accomplished.
I'm relieved to have caught up to where I should be today. I'm really feeling a win this year and I'm ecstatic. I told Wino this morning that training for a 5K makes anything else look do-able (except maybe a marathon....that would require more extensive training), but anything else is totally a can-do!
One draw back that I've found about being so intent about NaNoWriMo this year is that my spelling and grammar have seriously taken a nose dive in quality. I have to make sure I reread all emails that I send at work because otherwise I would have wise-a$$ students emailing me back pointing out my mistakes.
I've got to get my word count in at lunch tomorrow 'cause I've got a party to go to tomorrow night! I love parties ;)

NaNoWriMo Day 18
Word Count: 28,104 (before write-in)
Ok, I said I would go to last weeks write-in, but I didn't. When the time came to leave my cozy little home I just couldn't tear myself away after spending the day lazing around the house. Today I'm going straight from work to the write-in location, so I have no excuses! I am determined to get on track with my word count. I have just under 2K words to go and I'll be where I should.
